Similarity: The similarity in finding the volume of cone, cylinder, and sphere is that they all involve the use of the formula for volume of a geometric shape. The formula for finding the volume of a cone is (1/3)πr²h, the formula for finding the volume of a cylinder is πr²h, and the formula for finding the volume of a sphere is (4/3)πr³.
Difference: The difference in finding the volume of cone, cylinder, and sphere lies in the specific formulas used for each shape. While the formula for finding the volume of a cone involves the use of the radius (r) and height (h) of the cone, the formula for finding the volume of a cylinder also involves the use of the radius (r) and height (h), but without the (1/3) factor. On the other hand, the formula for finding the volume of a sphere only requires the use of the radius (r) of the sphere. Additionally, the coefficients in the formulas differ for each shape due to their differing geometric properties.
